The spirits invocations allow the invoker to specialize on specific tactics per day, thus giving a more varied playstyle than most martial characters. The spirit abilities, that are powered up via invocations, give additional options in a fight.
The ability scores you need most are the usual martial’s strength and constitution, with charisma being responsible for the uses and DC’s of spirit powers.
The best races for the invoker are those with a bonus to either str or con and charisma. Those with a connection to nature or fey are particularly good options from a backstory perspective, but of course anyone can attract the attention of the fey.
The genie descendant Suli or the plant-like Ghorans have excellent stats and fluff for invokers. Grendels from Dreamscarred Press are also an interesting option.
For multiclassing and gestalt, look for classes that support the invoker’s versatility and front-line role. A few levels of brawler can provide versatile access to combat feats for example.
Spirit Bound armor
Price: +1 bonus
A suit of Spirit Bound armor is inscribed with imagery related to the wearer’s spirit companion’s domain, and eases the merger of the wearer and his companion. The wearer can stay in the avatar form for an additional 2 minutes per day, and 3 times per day can cast one of the spirit companion’s spells as a free action.
The battles of the Warring States period took place on many battlefields, and the remains of clockwork ronin can be found in even the deepest wilderness. The spirits of these wild paces sometimes mingle with the remains of the ancestor spirits trapped in the spirit gears, brining the fallen soldiers to life once again.
